Why would you just not ban Zac?


Arrogance, inability to adjust gameplan, etc.

CJ teams always falling to the same mistakes. Not banning Zed or Zac. REally sad to see this outcome

yes, the zac is strong. yes, cloudtemplar did relatively little to prevent him from becoming the splitpushing god he became, esp in g2 and g3. yes, there is counterplay, but given the STRENGTH of KTB's other lanes (which they clearly picked for, lane dominance) they could not afford that counterplay (active suppression of zac and rotations after you gain that lane's tower / dominance to prevent zac from being able to come to his team's aid as easily as shen).

that is why CJ's picks (gragas vs zed with good lane control from rapidstar and a cait nami vs fid ez lane) in the 3rd game were imo the best, but cloudtemplar left shy out to the dogs toplane and he got dove twice relatively early with no consequence for KTB, giving insec the free lane.

Insec with the 38 or 39 kda total in this series I think

Zac is OP but Insec Zac is just incredibly OP. I usually call him Insex but I might switch to Inzac

Shy should have picked Vladimir instead of Zac. Same sustain SV incredible helpful too.

I dont think this was decided on champion picks. KT just was a level above Frost.

I'd say the primary difference was between kakao/cloudtemplar and rapidstar/ryu imo. Kakao and insec pretty much dived shy at every chance and cloudtemplar never really punished him for it so insec was free to snowball and get big on 3.10 visage zac.

They're easily the most OP Top Lane champions in 3.10.

You're probably going to see Shen vs. Zac in Korea till they nerf Zac/Spirit Visage


No no I know that. I'm just wondering why not pick Zac or ban it?

Because CJ teams don't prepare.

Props definitely need to be given to Shy imo. He really did the best he could, but there's nothing you can do to outpush a Zac as Shen, it's a matchup thing. AND Zac can interrupt shen's ult so easily, it's a very bad lane imo. He tried in game 3 to go for Sunfire first, but got immediately shut down by Kakao and friends.
Insec played the lane as he should, of course, but the problem for Shy was more the pick than anything else.

Lack of adaptation by Frost lost them the series by quite far. Rapidstar play on top of that...

Visage + some random tank is boring but given the strength of visage right now why would you not play that kind of hero. Zac just happened to be have very high base values on his spells and sustained and a free revive, which are accentuated by the removal of bulwark and new visage making him pretty unstoppable

What about the multiple AoE cc, non-cleansable initiation, 1550 jumps, %HP spammable AoE damage, on top of the broken sustain?
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.
